John Sterling’s Personalized Home Run Calls, Since 2002

Note: Some calls have evolved over time; the ones presented in the list above are believed to be the most prominent renditions. Calls in bold have not been confirmed by either memory, reputable sources, or archived audio. Entries separated by “/” represent different scripts, not variations of the same calls.

Good stuff. No need for anyone to take John Sterling so seriously that they would use the F word in their description of his broadcast style. It works for him and it works for the Yankees as there are sites after sites after sites about his home run calls. That’s called PUBLICITY and it is all FREE. John Sterling has been doing this kind of stuff for decades dating back to the New York Raiders of the WHA when his broadcast partner was Yankee lefty and wife swapper Fritz Peterson. Sterling would scream “Loose in front…Ward takes a wack it…Sheehan a rebound…RAIDER GOAL…RAIDER GOAL…RAIDER GOAL…BOBBY SHEEHAN AT THE SIDE OF THE NET PUTS A REBOUND PAST DALY AND THE RAIDERS LEAD 2 TO 1.” Sterling would go on to do the same thing with the Islanders ISLANDER GOAL…ISLANDERS GOAL…ISLANDER GOAL and the same thing with the New York Nets “Paultz a rebound..double teamed..gets it out to Williamson who let’s fly FROM 25 BULLSEYE BULLSEYE BULLSEYE SUPER JOHN WILLIAMSON BURRIES A 3 POINTER AND THE NETS GO UP BY 10.” so RELAX and enjoy the show…cause that’s all it is. It works for Sterling, it works for the Yankees and it better work for you cause he’s here to stay and will only go when HE determines it’s time…so stop your whining everybody.
